14Data import can be a **demanding process** for your server. Hence, it is
15done in two steps:
16
17- Insertion of the URL in the wallabag database
18- in the second step, the retrieval, for each article, of its full
19 content.
20
21These two steps cannot be done concurrently, because it let us the
22possibility to import thousands of links, but today, wallabag does not
23have sufficient technical capabilities to do this task automatically.

36From the configuration page of wallabag, section **Import**, select the
37file ``ril_export.html`` generated by Pocket, then click on **Import**.
38Wallabag only insert these links in the database. Now, you have to get
39the content of each article.
40
41For this, click on ``Click to finish import``: wallabag will fetch the
42content of 10 articles at a time.

78Since you can export your data from wallabag (see below), it is of
79course possible to re-import them.
80
81In the import form, select your wallabag-exported file (format JSON).
82Start the import, et voilĂ .
83
84Unlike the above imports, this process is shorter because all the data
85(title and content of the articles) are already included in the file.
86Hence wallabag does not have to access each URL. However, the import
87file is necessarily bigger.

94Export
95------
96
97It is possible to export your data from the page **Configuration** of
98wallabag. Several reasons to do this:
99
100- re-install of wallabag
101- leave the Framabag service to install your own wallabag
102- a user with an account on a multi-user wallabag want to have his/her
103 own wallabag installation
104- ...
105
106This will lead you to download a file `at the JSON
107format <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_Object_Notation>`__. As detailed above, you can import this file in wallabag.
